OHIC 101
Title:  OHIC 101
Description:  After the tree clearing, Northbound OHIC 101 finally enters Minerva Yard. The head out car was picked up at Watheys. You may notice the sign by the SOU boxcar that reads "BEGIN ORDC" - all track south of MP 43.5 is owned by the Ohio Rail Development Commission. North of here it is owned by LWR, Inc. and the other sign reads "BEGIN LWR". Their relationship to Ohi-Rail is somewhat of a mystery to me, but they don't rip stuff out, so I don't care!

OHIC 4097
Title:  OHIC 4097
Description:  Since the 101 was making a northbound run from Bergholz, this left yard work to be done, so the 4097 was fired up. Here she is working the south end of the yard. This is yet another former Monongahela Railway SUper 7 to find a home in Ohio.

OHIC Minerva Yard - South End
Title:  OHIC Minerva Yard - South End
Description:  For whatever stupid reason (all of Conrail's reasons were STUPID when it came to Minerva Yard) Conrail chose to tear out 2 through the yard, leaving a kink like this on both ends. I'm looking south towards Bergholz and Hopedale... That's 4 to my left, the Main to my right and 3 all the way over. 4 deadends at that little pile of ballast and that is 12 heading from the left and connecting to the main. You'll see other pics of this later...

OHIC Minerva Yard - South End
Title:  OHIC Minerva Yard - South End
Description:  I basically did a 360 from the last shot to get this view looking north. That the OHI-Rail Minerva Yard switcher doing some work. The track all the way on the right with the white tank cars is 10, then 4 (6 and 8 are gone), then the main (2 gone), then 3, 5, 7 and the train is on 9. In the background you can barely see a crossover that runs from the main over to 4 track. This is partially how OHIC gets around their cars to shove to the NS Interchange at Bayard.
